Recursion equations for 2x2 scattering matrices have been derived to calculate resonant x-ray reflection from magnetic multilayers. The solution has been basically reduced to that found in Stepanov et al, Phys. Rev. B 57, 4829 (1998) for grazing incidence x-ray diffraction from crystalline multilayers.
